Project Purpose

To create a collective effort of business owners, property owners, and neighboring residences to enhance economic vitality, improve pedestrian and bicycle safety and effectively manage storm water along the Galveston corridor.

Over a period of eight months the City of Bend worked with a community Task Force and Technical Advisory Committee to develop streetscape concept design for Galveston Avenue.

We have developed preliminary concepts with the vision and goals in mind, options to improve the safety and reduce congestion at the intersection of Galveston and Harmon and provide a location for additional on-street parking to alleviate the strain on neighbors.
